Note that this cable is NOT an ordinary HDMI® cable. This is specifically for connecting a device with an HDMI connector to another device equipped with a Single Link DVI-D connector, typically found on PCs, projectors, and older video equipment before the HDMI standard became widespread. These cables can NOT carry audio. They carry video signals only!

If you are looking for a High Speed HDMI Cable or a Standard HDMI Cable to connect equipment with HDMI connectors, please look at one of the following categories instead:

This HDMI to DVI Adapter Cable is capable of video performance equivalent to a High Speed HDMI Cable.

The CL2 rating on this cable indicates that its outer jacket has been designed to burn more slowly, thereby making it safe for use inside or through the walls of residential classed buildings. The CL2 rating ensures that your cable installation complies with fire safety codes and insurance requirements.

TIP: It is a good idea to test cables and connections before installing them inside a wall. If there are any issues or problems, we can help you resolve them before you spend the time, effort, and expense of installing them inside the walls.

The Net Jacket on this cable is an additional mesh jacket outside the normal cable jacket. It provides an additional layer of protection for the cable jacket to keep it safe from nicks and cuts that otherwise might penetrate the jacket and render the cable useless.

3D - 3D is the latest rage for both home theater and gaming. A High Speed HDMI Cable is capable of handling the high bandwidth requirements of 3D signals.

4K - The 4K resolution is 3840 x 2160 pixels @ 24 Hz, which is four times that of a 1080p display and the same resolution used by state-of-the-art Digital Cinema systems. A High Speed HDMI Cable is capable of handling the high bandwidth required for 4K support.

Deep Color - The Deep Color feature provides a minimum of 8-bits per color element (24-bits total), providing for a total of over 16 million color variations.

Answer: Yes, it is true that DVI will not pass the HDMI audio signal, only the video. So you'll need to make a separate audio connection to get sound.

Question: Does this cable pass and HDCP signal?

Answer: Yes, this cable will pass an HDCP signal because it is required by HDMI. While most consumer electronics devices with DVI connectors will be HDCP compliant, not all computer devices are. So make sure that any computer devices you connect with this cable is HDCP compliant. This pertains to projectors, computer monitors and computer graphics cards.

I recently had the opportunity to test Monoprice HDMI cables with equipmentrunning at 1080p 60Hz with HDCP 148.5MHz The results were very positive.

Please note that success at 1080p depends on a lot of factors including qualityof TMDS transmitters, receivers, and anything you might have connected to thecables like HDMI switches, repeaters, HDMI>DVD adapters, etc., therefore thesetest results should be taken as a data point and not as a guarantee the cableswill be problem free @ 1080p with your specific equipment.

For example, during initial testing I had discovered through process of eliminationthat one of the HDMI>DVI adapters I was using could not reliably pass 1080p. Atfirst I thought the cables were the issue, but after switching out the adapters, thecables worked great.

Also please note, even though some of these cables are listed as only 1080i certified,they did nevertheless pass 1080p without issues for the equipment combination I used.See this post for what was tested at the factory:http://www.avsforum.com/avsvb/show...4&post6953664

The process of listing a cable as passing visual inspection involved looking at blackscreen for 30 seconds to detect sparkles, then watching video for 1 minute to detectadditional artifacts.

Sharp LC45GX6U is a 1920x1080 LCD display which accepts 1080p and 1080p/hdcp whendevices are connected directly to the panel, bypassing the external video processor.

Pros: Great product, even greater price. No problems with ordering or shipping.

Cons: No Cons

Pros: Cable is high quality.

Cons: None

Cable is used in a professional environment between a digital server and NEC 2500S digital cinema projector. Cable works beautifully for our purposes. You'd be surprised just how many cables are embossed with "monoprice" in digital cinema environments.

Great cable. Great Quality. Be careful when installing a lot of these on the back of a TV or receiver, they can place a great deal of weight on the ports. Using port-savers resolves this problem and can save you from expensive repairs.
